Chapter 0416: I Am the Duke of Dragonstone
Shae and Gracie Tesa put on makeup for Miss Sansa, and the court ladies waited around in a crowd.
Tyrion Lannister said, "Let me marry a maid, and in the future Sansa will appear in the North, and the whole royal family and Lannister, it will be a joke, and it will be a stench for thousands of years." β
"The people of the Seven Kingdoms will only know that you are married to Sansa. If the rest of House Stark dies, or if Robb Stark dies, 'Sansa' will be the heir in line, and you and her children will be the future Lord of Winterfell. Tywin stared at Tyrion Lannister, "Your mission is to impregnate 'Sansa' and give birth to the baby as soon as possible." β
"How long do you think this lie can be told?"
"If you're willing to use your brain, you'll know it's not a lie, that's the fact that you're married to Sansa. "Duke Tywin's face was expressionless, his face like an iron plate.
"Yes, Father, I will sow the fiery seeds of the Lannisters tonight, and then blossom in the North. Tyrion said, "Now, Your Majesty the Queen Mother, Your Majesty the Prime Minister, Minister of Intelligence, may I ask you to go out, I would like to rehearse the etiquette of the wedding with my fiancΓ©e Sansa, and of course, please ask the monk who officiated at the wedding to come too, for the honor of the royal family and the Lannisters." β
In the morning, the bridegroom Tyrion and the bride Sansa were married in the Hall of the Seven in the Red Keep Chapel, and in the presence of the Seven Gods, they were anointed with the holy oil of eternal union. At the monk's announcement, Tyrion and Sansa were officially married, and the choir's beautiful songs resounded throughout the sanctuary.
After the tedious process of the wedding was passed one by one, the time came to noon, and everyone gathered around the bride and groom to walk out of the sanctuary and into the Mei Ge Building, where the wedding feast was held.
The bride wore a beautiful face towel throughout the wedding in the sanctuary, revealing only a pair of beautiful big eyes.
Before the wedding feast begins, the last wedding ceremony is to receive blessings from friends and family.
The bridegroom, the little devil, and the bride Sansa, wearing a veil, began to receive wedding blessings from the Queen Mother, the King, Miss Margaery, Lord Mace, Lady Olenna, the Prime Minister, Petyr Littlefinger, and Kay von Lannister, and the hall was filled with tables and courtiers.
The Sea Minister, Magic Mountain, the Captain of the Kingsguard, Loras Tyrell, the Commander-in-Chief of the Garrison, Adam Malbran, and the Bachelor Coben were also important ministers of the Imperial Palace, but they were stopped when they stepped forward to exercise guest etiquette.
The hounds, Bolon, and Podrick were the guardian warriors of the bride and groom, and the nobles, knights, noblewomen, and ladies who wanted to pay their respects to the bride and groom were all stopped by them.
The Prime Minister stood up, his face expressionless, and there was not the slightest joy in his eyes, "Ladies and Misses, Lady Sansa is not feeling well, so there is no need to come forward to congratulate them one by one, please be seated, Lord Burkeberg, and announce the beginning of the wedding feast!" β
As the court director announced as if singing, delicacies were served like water. On the stage in the middle of the hall, burlesque performers begin to perform burlesques, while clowns dress in exaggerated costumes and wear red noses as they walk among the nobles and nobles, making ridiculous gestures to please their guests. Harpists played melodious harps, wandering singers sang the most festive songs, and magicians began their dazzling and magical performances......
Outside the hall, the garrison officers, the generals of the Western Realm, the generals of the Riverlands, the generals of the Cregan Army, and the knights of the King's Realm did not have as many rules as the nobles in the hall, and they opened the wine bags first, and picked up chopsticks or knives and forks.
The luthiers, moon boys, clowns, singers, and magicians were there to entertain them.
"What's that?" said a golden-robed garrison on the walls of the Iron Gate, looking at Rossby Road.
A team is slowly coming, and the flag bearers are waving high banners.
The second soldier also saw it: "Is it the nobleman who came to the little devil's wedding?"
"No way. The third soldier said, "Count Rosby and the Knights of Boron are both in the city, and it is impossible for the Muton family of Nuquan to come, they are loyal to the Tully family, and the Ryker family of Duskdale entered the city yesterday." β
"Look at their flag pattern, I've never seen it before. The fourth soldier said.
"It's an army. "Sergeant Major is coming," sounded the warning horn and ordered the city gates to be closed, this is the army from the Crab Claw Peninsula. The sergeant's voice changed.
The Crab Claw Peninsula, the absolute forbidden land of the King's domain.
The sudden arrival of the army of the Crab Claw Peninsula outside King's Landing was a very ominous sign. And today is a very special day, the officers in the barracks have gone to the wedding of the little devil and Sansa, and there is only one centurion left in the steel gate, and the guy is obviously depressed and drunk......
The sergeant major ordered the warning horn to be sounded!
Woooooo
Woooooooooooooooo
Woooooooooooo
The horn sounds, the warning horn.
The first trumpet is a warning to the soldiers, the second is a warning to the people, and the third is to close the city gates.
The people outside the steel gate stumbled back to the city, and many lost their belongings.
Click!
The heavy iron-trimmed oak gates slowly closed.
Boom Boom! Boom Boom!
On the city wall, the neat footsteps of the soldiers sounded.
In the barracks under the city walls, the soldiers came out to watch.
The drunken centurion is sleeping soundly! The guards can't wake him up!
The sound of the horn reached the docks of the Blackwater River.
Tax collectors, cargo inspectors, patrol soldiers, merchants and shipwrights, sailors and coolies ran together, some running towards the mud gates, some getting on the boats, some shouting, some looking for a place to hide...... The patrol soldiers gathered at the captain's command, and the naval soldiers jumped onto the battleship......
Flags appeared, some with a horn depicted on them, some with a horse's hoof with an iron hook, some with a tree full of arrows, some with crabs and turtles, some with poisonous snakes biting bows and arrows, and some with colorful paints that could not be seen in any pattern......
Basically, the soldiers of the garrison on the city walls, never saw these patterns. The banner pattern of the great nobles of the royal territory is the family crest of the nobles, everyone is familiar with it, and everyone has seen all kinds of flags played by this army for the first time.
The team came under the city walls, behind the cavalry were infantry, the infantry were all archers, about three thousand people, and more than a thousand cavalry, which was a very powerful army.
The faces of the chiefs were painted with colorful paint, some of the chiefs were not well armoured, and the soldiers were even better if they had leather guards. But the morale of this team is very high, everyone is fierce, and the murderous spirit is something that the soldiers of the garrison on the city wall can clearly feel.
"Where are you from, who are the leading generals, and what are you?"
The sergeant major stood at the head of the city in an official tone and shouted below.
The sergeant major already knew that the other party was from the Crab Claw Peninsula, and was a nominally independent royal power that could not be managed, and he was extremely strong in combat, savage and cruel by nature. When the first king Robert was there, there were relatively few conflicts between the people of the Crab Claw Peninsula and the royal nobles, and after the death of the first king Robert, the new king was still a child, did the tribes of the Crab Claw Peninsula want to come here to demonstrate?
The first general is none other than the new leader of the Foca tribe, Esthoka. He did not answer, but took off his bow and arrow, and shot an arrow that hit the sergeant's arm.
It's a green arrow!
The sergeant's armor was pierced by this arrow, and the wound was minor and did not hurt the bones and bones, but this act was a bold provocation.
The garrison belongs to the royal family and represents the supreme royal power.
Inside the city, a large army is stationed. The Western Army, which had not yet returned to the West, the Riverbend Army, the Crecan Army, which did not go to Dragonstone, and the royal garrison, had 2,000 Golden Robes, and the Golden Robe was expanded to 6,000 during the war, and after the war, the 4,000 temporarily assembled soldiers were disbanded, which was a move to save royal expenses, and in the case of other nobles' armies to protect King's Landing, Petyrberry the Littlefinger would do everything he could to save money.
Although the generals are not there, the sergeant major is very nervous, but he is confident, there are three hundred people of the little devil stationed in the compound near the steel gate, and two thousand people of the Klegane army are stationed in the barracks on the left...... It's just a pity that the sergeant major does not have the right to transfer these regiments......
The sergeant chief drew his arrow, threw down the wall, and shouted, "Are you looking for death? This is King's Landing, and we are the king's ......" Suddenly the sergeant was speechless, his face was pale, his eyes bulged, and the corners of his mouth were foaming and blood......
"Enemy attack!" the soldiers panicked, "blow the horn, enemy attack!"
Woooooooo
The high-pitched, majestic, murderous, and urgent trumpet sound is different from the low, depressing, and slow trumpet sound of early warning. This time, it was the trumpets of the enemy's attack, and the trumpets of the enemy attack sounded, blowing from the steel gate, and the mud door was immediately connected, and then the trumpeter of the king's gate followed...... In a few moments, the trumpets of the enemy attack resounded throughout the city.
In the barracks of the garrison under the walls of the Iron Gate.
Crash!
A bucket of cold water poured into the face of the drunken centurion, who sat up suddenly, his eyes wide with rage, and was about to attack, when the horn of the enemy attack whined: high-pitched, loud and urgent.
The centurion was startled, rolled over and jumped up: "Guard, go to the Red Fort immediately and inform the commander-in-chief, Adam Malbran." β
"Yes, sir!" said one of the guards.
The centurion came out of the room, not knowing anything at all, but his basic military qualities were there: "All the soldiers, array!"
The soldiers in the barracks were already dressed neatly, but no one gave orders, and they were in chaos in front of the barracks, and the centurion lined up, and the soldiers quickly lined up.
"Go to the wall, defend!" shouted the centurion. Water from his hair ran down his hair, down his face, and down to his chin. In the whine of the enemy attack, the atmosphere was tense, and no one laughed.
On the other side, the Cregan soldiers sat lazily eating and drinking in the barracks, as if they had not heard any horns at all.
The enemy attacked King's Landing, as if it had nothing to do with them.
At the gate of the barracks, several Clegane soldiers laughed as if they were facing a great enemy, and did not hide their ridicule.
This is the army of Clegane's bigwigs, Chiswick, and most of the soldiers are brutal bandits before they become full-fledged soldiers. After several baptisms of fighting tens of thousands of people against each other, these street hooligans and recruits have quickly become real iron-blooded veterans.
They didn't hear the dense drums of war or the thunderous hooves of horses that shook the ground slightly, so they knew that there were not many troops coming. A small army had come to attack King's Landing, and King's Landing was heavily garrisoned, and the people who came were either fools or simply impatient.
The mountain tribe warriors who originally lived here were transferred to the mud gate, because the mountain tribe warriors were drunk, and the tribes often fought and killed people because of drinking, gambling, or a word, or a ** look, and they laughed at the magic mountain training queue, which was focused on rectification by the magic mountain, and all the 1,000 soldiers were pulled to the mud gate and handed over to Sir Jekobech for training.
Compared to the life of the past, the life of the warriors of the hill tribes is simply entered into heaven. Under the strong pressure of the Magic Mountain, they had to undergo training in queues, offense and defense, and all kinds of formation changes that seemed very ridiculous to them.
Osmond Kate Black, the Kingsguard guarding the hall of Meggor Tower, pushed open a narrow slit in the door, and the commotion inside burst out, causing discomfort to the soldiers who had come to report the news.
The soldier had a golden robe, and Osmond let him go in to find Commander-in-Chief Adam Malbran.
In the hall, people come and go, all eyes are exquisite makeup, pearlescent jewelry, noble ladies and ladies, jazz knights are noble and elegant, singers, luthiers, clowns, magicians, burlesque actors show their skills, be sure to please the nobles in front of you, in case of good luck, the nobles will be happy to enjoy a hand ornament, take it out and sell it is a lifetime of food money.
The first time the soldier entered the halls of the Megar Tower, he eventually had to consult with a few golden-robed guards, and finally found Adam Malbran with the help of Loras Tyrell, the captain of the Kingsguard.
Adam Malbran was drinking happily, and when he heard the news, he stared at the magic mountain beside him, got up, and came to the Prime Minister, who was sitting like a statue, and whispered.
Duke Tywin's face did not change, and soon, his captain of the guard, Wallis Lannister, came to the Magic Mountain: "The Magic Mountain, the Prime Minister has called you to go. β
The magic mountain did not move.
Wallis Lannister's face changed slightly, but today was a very day, and he decided to be patient: "Magic Mountain, Your Excellency Prime Minister has something urgent to look for you. β
There were two maids beside the magic mountain who were cutting and roasting meat for him and smearing it with honey, and he used chopsticks to chew slowly: "Wallis Lannister, are you a knight?"
β...... Belch...... It's not ......"
"Are you a sir?viscount?baron?count?marquis?"
Wallis Lannister's face suddenly turned red, and he didn't stick a drop of wine: "I'm not a sir, Magic Mountain." β
"I am, Duke of Dragonstone. Magic Mountain put down his chopsticks and stared at Wallis Lannister, "Now you know what to call me?
A fine sweat broke out on Wallis Lannister's forehead and the tip of his nose: "Yes, Lord Duke Grego Cregan, Prime Minister, please." β
Magic Mountain slowly stood up: "Wallis Lannister Guard, remember, don't let your rudeness disgrace the honor of the Lannister family, even though you are not an orthodox Lannister. β
"Yes, my lord!" Wallis Lannister was feverish, lowered his head, bowed, and gestured, "Lord Duke, please!"
